Operation Manual

RSTP on the other hand is much faster than STP. It can

complete a convergence in seconds, so it greatly dimin-

ishes the possible impact the process can have on your

network compared to STP. RSTP reduces the number of

state changes before active ports start learning, pre-

deninganalternateroutethatcanbeusedwhena

node or port fails and retain the forwarding database for

ports insensitive to changes in the tree structure when

recongurationoccurs.

Select whether to Enable or Disable the Spanning Tree

function for the Switch. Next, select whether you wish

to enable STP, RSTP, or MSTP. Again, please note that

only one Spanning tree function can be active at a time.
